Show notes

The days of Ndamukong Suh wearing a Detroit Lions uniform appear to be up on this Tuesday.

ESPN’s Chris Mortenson is reporting this afternoon that league sources point to a six year, $114 million deal to bring Suh to the Miami Dolphins, making him one of the highest paid players in the NFL. Reports are the Dolphins offered significantly more than the Lions or any other suitors, which included the Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars, Oakland Raiders, and San Diego Chargers.


The discussions happened during the 72 hour window that teams have with free agents. Suh is reported to get something in the neighborhood of $60 million in the first 3 years and the average compensation will be $19 million over the six years of the deal.

What do you think? Will the Detroit Lions be better or worse off without Suh?
